After weeks and weeks of building up suspense, Rihanna has finally released her new single, “Russian Roulette.” And it’s definitely not what we expected.
We’re not going to say it’s a bad song because it’s actually pretty good, but for a “comeback” single we expected something a bit more upbeat. But anyway, take a listen to the song for yourself above and continue reading to download it!
Be on the look-out for her new album, which drops on November 23rd.
This song sounds so much like unfaithful. Right now the hype was fake and I have to hear it maybe 50 more times before i consider it worth listening to. I was hoping for more of a upbeat sound.
Actually the meaning of the song is more deeper than that. The whole Russian Roulette thing is a metaphor. It’s about a woman in an abusive relationship, and taking the chances of staying in the relationship. So it is pretty ballsy for Rihanna and it makes me respect her, and the song so much more after figuring it out lol
@Amanda…stop reading MTV News…can it be that there is no meaning but a song that was written by Turtle and she sung what he gave her end of story…I like that better but the song isn’t all that the key is can she sing this on GMA like this track …
i like the song…. but really??? this is ur 1st single??? u just got ur ass beat & u want ur fans to hear u talking like this???
then……. u wear a damn eye patch like its a fashion statement. tina turner didnt wear a back brace after ike whopped her ass as a fashion statement.
this has gotten way outta hand. if he whopped ur ass. ok. we get it. poor RIRI. but when it keeps coming up. when we google ur name or his & beat up… come after it, thats a shame. ppl are no longer interested in U, they wanna know about the gossip, the drama.
why did he whoop ur ass. paris texted him, u gave him herpes…. man i heard it ALL>
get over it. be someone positive or a role model for young females going thru the same thing.
how does this long help them????
another thing…
this hardcore, badd ass image is funny. if u were soooo bad, he wouldnt have beat u up like that. & if he did… ur ppl from barbados wouldve been on the next boat to the US to get him
hell let my BF kick my ass… im callin pookie & them… u wont find him. period!!!
RIRI has changed. when she 1st came out, she was black. now… lighter skin. the white girl look (to win the white guys over) is crazy. she needs to think about who she is as a person. stop trying to be something ur NOT!
oh wow i got alot of diffrent messages from this song the one i got most was that she his still going threw the emotinal pain about her and Chris brown……..i like the fact that she is taking her pain out in her music and not in her self!!
The music is alght, but is not as good as her other musics. We were expecting more for a come back.
